Lin could still come back. Byron would probably want Lou to play SG like he did in the past with the Raptors and Hawks and move Nick to SF. Then again, you don't need a true PG in the Princeton Offense.

Again, why would you want to trade Nick Young when you could have TWO scorers off the bench that wouldn't need to iso as much because they'd have each other?

If Young isn't there then Lou is going to be iso'ing all day, which if you've watched the Raptors you'd know is entertaining but not what we'd want him to do.

I'd much rather have Lou and Nick working together and getting high percentage shots that aren't contested 90% of the time. Then both are more efficient and we benefit from having both scorers on our bench and we'd have them both long term for the next 3-4 years. I'm all for that.

Amen. Nick Young and Wes Johnson get way too much love from some Lakers fans.

I hate the smirky looks on their face as if their good or something Lakers down by 20 and these 2 clowns ( swaggy & wesley) are always smirking like it's fun to lose never take game seriously. Get these garbage players out of town and out of the league!!!

Young actually has a somewhat reasonable contract (5 mil per). I'm sure they're shopping him - not sure how much interest there is, but he could be key for a team needing scoring off the bench.

Lou and Young off the bench for scoring would be our best scenario. Neither would be the sole offensive option, thus, there wouldn't be so many iso's. Which could lead to a more efficient year for both of them.

And we'd benefit
